Watch Emanne’s and André’s first meeting in Maastricht here:

 

Beasha made her national debut on America’s Got Talent in June of 2019 with a showstopping rendition of Puccini’s classic aria "Nessun Dorma." Catapulting into the national consciousness she went on to receive the Golden Buzzer from Jay Leno for her operatic version of "Caruso.”

Quickly becoming a fan-favorite, additional performances included an amazing crossover of Bryan Adams’ "Everything I Do” and “Quello Che Faro" and her finale showstopper, "La Mamma Morta."

On the “Finale Results” show the vocal powerhouse performed "Con Te Partiro" with the world-renowned pianist Lang Lang. Emanne Beasha was born in 2008 and has been singing since she was two years old. When she was just seven years old, Emanne performed in front of her first major crowd of 10,000 when she sang the national anthem for a baseball game in Port Charlotte, Florida. Soon after, she started learning opera pieces from YouTube. In 2017, she won Arabs Got Talent. She records with Decca Records US and released her first EP in November.

"I’m so excited to be joining Andre Rieu’s US tour. I have loved his music since I was little. This is a dream come true.” says Emanne.
